Anyone on here done it?
I’ve had competent crew for many years but after a bit of tall ship sailing when I was much younger I’ve not really done much since.
Last week I did the day skipper course and I’ve got to say, thoroughly enjoyed it, and actually look forward to doing a bit more.
Went out from Dartmouth, down to Salcombe for first night, into Plymouth for 2 nights including the night nav. Then back into kingswear before some bouy work in the river etc.
Had some interesting weather, very very gusty, but generally about 25kts of wind. Start point on way out was notnging short of disgusting. A little better on the way back and managed to make great time in quite a big sea.
Great fun ( and a little surprised at how enjoyable I found it).
Anyone else thought of or plans to do anything along those lines?
